real player can only play real streams AFAIK..
You need ALSO or esound.. its your sound driver.. you may have alsa/esound both installed..
but you can
'yum install esound' and that should help
I tried to launch the salsa link for winamp and it played alright using RealPlayer 10. (Not a salsa music fan, but a good test)
I used xmms before after saving the playlist to disk and launching it by selecting the saved playlist.
MP3s not being included by default in the RHL 8 through present Fedora might have made the playlist capability for the player. It should work as Winamp works for most audio files.
